Can You Replace a PS3 Laser with a PS2 Laser?

May be...
  • my ps3's laser broke and i have a few ps2's laying around, would it be possible that they're interchangeable?
  • Physically yes you could. But the PS3's laser is a different frequency causing the color to be a blueish violet color, this allows the laser to read Blu ray disks. The 360, original Xbox, PS2, PS1, Game Cube, and the Wii all use a red laser that is incapable of reading blu ray disks. If you were to replace the laser the PS3 would no longer to be able to read blu ray movies, or play any games for the PS3. Also if you PS3 CANNOT read PS2 games, this will NOT allow the system to play them, the 20GB & 60GB use hardware from the PS2's, while the Metal Gear Solid 4 and Motorstorm 80GB's use software emulation. I don't what you could gain from attempting this.
  • No, that would void your warnity and it won't work so fix it by goeing to a game store or getting a new ps3 (rember to save the hard drive so that you can still have your saves and stuff)
  • that would be destroying the bluray feature and wont display high quality when you play games which is (1080px)



    so ya... DON'T DO IT!!!
  • no
